Dentists

Procedure for allocation of a service provider code

To practise as a dentist in Luxembourg, I must obtain authorisation from the Ministry of Health and Social Security.

In accordance with the laws in force, which impose compulsory agreements, the CNS provides me with a service provider code.

Thus, the agreements between the CNS and the Association of Physicians and Dentists (Association des médecins et médecins-dentistes-AMMD), as well as their mandatory provisions, apply to me as a dentist practising in Luxembourg.

Before I start practising, I must therefore obtain this individual service provider code from the CNS.

"Art. 4. Avant leur entrée en fonctions, les médecins (et médecins-dentistes) se font attribuer par la Caisse nationale de santé un code médecin (ou médecin-dentiste) individuel. (...)"

Documents to be sent to the CNS:

  • The ‘Information sheet on the establishment of a doctor/dentist in Luxembourg’(Fiche de renseignement sur l'établissement d'un médecin/médecin-dentiste au Luxembourg)
  • A copy of the ‘authorisation to practise’ (autorisation d'exercer) or the ‘service provision declaration’ (déclaration des prestations de service) issued by the Ministry of Health and Social Security, and, where applicable, the authorisation relating to radiation protection(autorisation relative à la radioprotection).
  • A copy of an identity document
  • Bank details

Documents should be sent in PDF format to gefo.cns@secu.lu.

Requests in JPEG and HTM format cannot be opened and will therefore not be accepted.

Activating MySecu.lu web services

Your software publisher has updated your software to enable the PID to function.

You must also activate the web services on mySecu.lu (this only needs to be done once). Activation is a simple process involving just a few steps. Once completed, you will be able to access and use the PID.

Here is a quick tutorial (in French only). I click on the 'enlarge' icon at the bottom left, or I click on this link to open the presentation in a new tab in my browser.

Liberal association

You can practise either individually in a private practice or join forces with other colleagues in a shared medical practice.

The practice of medicine in a liberal association with shared fees is linked to the creation of a common service provider code. All acts performed by the members of the association can be invoiced under this code.

A liberal association is characterised by greater stability and transparency between its members. Each member of the association receives an annual statement of the amounts charged to the association for the period during which they were a member.

To request a common service provider code or to communicate a change in the composition of an existing association to the CNS, the form ‘Practising medicine in a liberal association’(Pratique de la médecin en association libérale), available under ‘Focus on forms’ should be used.

 
Currently, only doctors who practise the same medical speciality are authorised to form a liberal association.
